A Series for Men Exploring Yoga

More and more men are asking questions about how yoga can add benefit to their lives. Guys, consider yourselves invited: Dude Yoga.

Dude yoga is great for those who:

  • Tried a class once and would like to take it further
  • Had a wife/girlfriend/friend/co-worker show them a pose to alleviate a symptom – and liked the effect
  • Never touched his toes but is tired of a lack of mobility
  • Have become an ultra-fit weightlifter or runner who is finally listening to his trainer and integrating movement that elongates the muscle as it builds, preventing injury and increasing overall muscle mass.
  • Are working to manage the physical symptoms of chronic stress, anxiety, and/or depression*, such as digestive problems, neck & shoulder tension, decreased energy, poor quality sleep, general restlessness, bouts of anger/rage,

Any reason is a good reason to try yoga.

Dude Yoga is Saturdays at 7:30 AM at Simple Gifts Dance Studio.

5-Week Series $40 | Individual class $10

Ready to give it a try?

  • Wear clothing that allows movement. What you wear to the gym is fine.
  • Practicing barefoot on a non-slip mat is best. If you don’t have a mat, there are some available to borrow or for purchase at the studio, including extra-long lengths.
  • Enter the studio through the double doors on Warpole Street.
  • Consider arriving a few minutes early to settle into the room.

 

  

*Yoga alone may not be what you need and individuals should talk to health care providers or seek mental health support to access other tools and treatment.
